    Ray, I'll keep my 6 chucks, allows me to have multiple projects on the go
    There is a warning inn their "Additional Safety Notes" not to run it in reverse or without a workpiece in the chuck.

    Some extracts from the Infinity manual,

    18. DO NOT ROTATE CHUCK UNDER POWER WITHOUT WOOD BEING GRIPPED

    21 DO NOT TURN IN REVERSE. Do not use this chuck for reverse turning operations, light reverse operations i.e. sanding are allowed. Speed not above 2000 rpm.

    27 DO NOT USE WITH ANY COPYTURNER OPERATIONS

    29 WARNING FOR <st1:stockticker>SAFE</st1:stockticker> OPERATION. DO NOT EXTEND JAW SLIDES BEYOND CHUCK BODY UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES

    Troubleshooting Guide

    Problem
    4. Jaw Slides closed to centre and No. 1 slide stays in centre when jaws are expanded again.

    Possible Cause and Solution
    Jaw Slide(s) have over travelled from scroll. It will be necessary to tap back No 1 jaw slide until it has re-engaged. See 'insertion of jaw slide' in this manual.

    Those two worry me.

    Sometimes you just can't beat a good screw or two.

    Good to see the 'tool company innovating again. I think that's clever. I hope their machining is up to it.

    I never tried it but some turners have: knock out the stop pin from your Vicmarc chuck having fitted slide spares permanently to your jaws. Just feed them in instead of dealing with 8 screws. Of course this too could lead to embarrassment.
    Cheers, Ern
